4. Chicago Bulls
Surprisingly ahead of the Knicks in some listings, the Chicago Bulls hold an outside chance of upsetting the odds.
Without the services of the injured Derrick Rose, the Bulls have performed admirably in his absence and sit fifth in the Eastern Conference with a 30-22 record.
While it is difficult to see them really threaten over the course of a gruelling play-off schedule without Rose, they can never be counted out completely.
Inspired by the likes of Joakim Noah, Luol Deng and Carlos Boozer, they will have their say in the post-season and potentially will have their star man back on the court in time.
